Choose Your Orlistat Supply Length - Which Pack Size?
How Does Orlistat Work? Understanding the 60mg vs 120mg Question
Orlistat works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat from being absorbed in your digestive system. The unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body. Orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg are prescription-only medicines requiring clinical assessment, whilst Alli contains 60mg orlistat at half the strength. All three products may help support weight management when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity.
2 Week Supply - Getting Started
A 2-week orlistat trial allows you to assess how your body responds to treatment. Generic orlistat 42 capsules costs £15.20 with EDM10, whilst Xenical 42 capsules costs £19.35 with EDM10. This shorter supply is ideal for first-time users wanting to evaluate tolerance before committing to longer treatment periods. Each pack contains enough capsules for 2 weeks when taking one capsule three times daily with main meals.
4 Week Supply - The Popular Choice
Our 4-week supplies offer the perfect balance of value and flexibility. Orlistat 84 capsules costs just £29.69 with EDM10 - saving you money compared to shorter packs. Xenical 4-week supply costs £38.69 with EDM10. This duration allows sufficient time to establish a routine whilst keeping dietary fat intake low to minimise potential gastrointestinal side effects. Most patients find their body adapts within the first month of treatment.
8 Week Supply - Better Value
Extend your treatment with 8-week supplies offering enhanced savings. Orlistat 168 capsules costs £57.59 with EDM10 (saving £4.60 vs two 4-week packs). Xenical 8-week supply costs £78.29 with EDM10. Alli 8-week supply (84 capsules at 60mg strength) costs £49.49 with EDM10. Longer supplies ensure treatment continuity without frequent reordering whilst maximising your EDM10 discount benefits.
12 Week Supply - Maximum Savings
Our 12-week supplies deliver the best value for sustained weight management support. Orlistat 252 capsules costs £86.39 with EDM10 - a significant saving of £2.68 per month compared to 4-week packs. Xenical 12-week supply costs £116.09 with EDM10, whilst Alli 12-week supply costs £116.99 with EDM10. These larger packs are perfect for patients committed to longer-term treatment alongside their dietary and lifestyle programme.
Alli 60mg - Lower Strength Option
Alli contains 60mg orlistat - half the strength of prescription orlistat and Xenical. Available in 4-week (£26.09 with EDM10), 8-week (£49.49 with EDM10) and 12-week (£116.99 with EDM10) supplies. Some patients prefer starting with Alli's lower dose to assess their response before considering prescription-strength options through clinical consultation.
Which Supply Length Should You Choose?
First-time users often prefer 2 or 4-week supplies to evaluate treatment response. Patients established on orlistat typically choose 8 or 12-week supplies for better value and convenience. Consider your budget, treatment goals, and previous experience with orlistat when selecting pack sizes. Remember, orlistat works best when dietary fat is kept low - approximately 15g fat per meal helps minimise side effects significantly.
